#h < 30#

#h - 26 < 4#
#h < 4 + 26#
#h < 30#

To solve the inequality (h - 26 < 4), you would add 26 to both sides of the inequality:

(h - 26 + 26 < 4 + 26)

This simplifies to:

(h < 30)

To graph this inequality on a number line, you would plot an open circle at (h = 30) (since it's "less than" and not "less than or equal to") and shade the region to the left of 30, indicating all values of (h) that satisfy the inequality.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
